Variety description

10 August 2026

The James Grieve variety is an old apple variety of moderate vigor with early flowering. The tree is a good pollinator for other varieties. Fruits are medium-sized, yellow-orange with stripes, and are characterized by high juiciness and a tendency to drop when fully ripe.

The fruits are for universal use, but their transport is difficult due to their delicate skin. When harvested early, they have a pronounced acidity, which gives way to sweetness upon ripening. Under high humidity conditions, the tree may be susceptible to scab and canker.
